SI Man Caught ‘Winging It’

A Staten Island man was busted last weekend when he was seen sitting naked in his car masturbating near a park where kids were playing, police said.

Richard Uscianowski, 54, was “completely naked” when police saw him parked on Beach 108 Street and Shore Front Parkway last Saturday afternoon, according to allegations detailed in court records.

Uscianowski had rubbed baby oil on his penis and was using a plastic “Water Wing” flotation device to masturbate, according to the allegations.

Water Wings are the popular swimming aides that children inflate and wear on their upper arms when they are learning to swim. A quick Internet search returned more than a dozen websites describing their use for masturbatory purposes.

The man’s alleged Water Wing wank took place about 10 feet from a park where a dozen young children were playing, police said. He didn’t make contact with any of the children, police said, but he watched them as he pleasured himself.

Uscianowski, of 55 Jamie Court, Staten Island is charged with public lewdness and exposure. Queens Criminal Court Judge Pauline A. Mullings set bail at $1,500, according to a spokeswoman for Queens District Attorney Richard A. Brown. Uscianowski is due back in court on August 26.
